This entry represents the C-terminal coiled-coil dimerisation region of the anopheles LRIM protein. This region heterodimerises with a region of the APL1C protein [1]. LRIM1 and APL1C are members of a family of proteins secreted by mosquitoes that contain an N-terminal LRR domain followed by a cysteine-rich region and a variable C terminus [1].
